Stewart, is this the Rangeley Lake House today? [

Those old railway hotels were really cool, and fun to visit the ones that still exist. Like El Tovar (Santa Fe/HarveyHouse) at the Grand Canyon, Prince of Wales Hotel (Great Northern Rly) in Waterton Nat Park Alberta, Montebello in Quebec, and of course CPR’s castles like Banff Springs and Chateau Lake Louise in the Canadian Rockies. I’m sure a comprehensive list of them would get very long, but they’re certainly worth visiting when vacationing in their respective areas.
Cheers,
